This Is Rock 'n' Roll Radio # 1161: OUR PRAYER: Love, Hope, and Holding On

With Christmas falling on a Sunday this year, we wanted to program something special in between last week's Christmas show and next week's Countdown show. So we offer you OUR PRAYER: Love, Hope, And Holding On.

Our prayer isn't just for a better tomorrow; our prayer is for a better TODAY. Let's go. We have some music for the journey. This is what our prayer sounded like on a Sunday night in Syracuse this week.

NEXT WEEK: THE COUNTDOWN!! I have seen the Countdown, and it is good. Happy Holidays from Dana and Carl.

This show is available as a podcast.

This Is Rock 'n' Roll Radio with Dana & Carl airs Sunday nights from 9 to Midnight Eastern, on the air in Syracuse at SPARK! WSPJ 103.3 and 93.7 FM, on the web at  http://sparksyracuse.org/, and via the TuneIn Radio and Radio Garden apps as Westcott Radio.

REMINDER! You can help our friend (and Radio Deer Camp host) Rich Firestone, and we hope you will: Support Rich's Transition To Disabled Living. And we thanks ya!
